Erin Wiersma identifies herself as a drawing based artist. Drawing allows her to witness and echo her daily life, through a visual process. A slow, laborious building of rich lines and gestures, embedded as layers of sediment allow Erin a record of her mark, mirroring the process of life. The drawings are reflective of a kind of archiving and mapping of points of recognition within the seeming chaos.
